'Already in beta to the delight of one billion underpowered PCs that aren’t game ready, GeForce Now will soon extend to one of the most popular screens in the world, Android phones — including flagship devices from LG and Samsung,' explains Nvidia's Phil Eisler. 'Just like on [Windows] PC, Mac and Shield TV, when the Android mobile app releases it'll be in beta. We'll continue improving and optimising the experience.'

The announcement of Android client support comes alongside the beginning of cloud-powered RTX functionality, bringing the company's DirectX Raytracing (DXR) support to its GeForce Now datacentres - beginning, the company explains, with the data centres in Frankfurt and California, and to roll out globally in the coming months.
